The main goal of the work is to provide a complete translation of the text + glosses (those have never been translated), and to have an edition of the text based mainly on Or. 298, which is the oldest extant dated copy of the Metrical Grammar and has neber been studied or used for an edition so far. The edition + translation will not be a proper critical edition, but it will contain extensive linguistic and textual commentary, based on a number of manuscripts that have been selected for specific reasons.
The scientific focus of the work is on the glosses.
